• Is the course loaded all at once?


No. Once you begin your training, LabSim provides what's coming next in the background while you're studying the current material. As long as you're going in order, there's no waiting for training materials to be accessed. Once a course segment has been accessed, it's cached to your hard drive for quick and immediate use in the future. LabSim will cache up to 4 GB of training material.


• Once I have accessed a training segment, do I have to be online to access it again?


• No. Once a course segment has been cached, it's stored to your hard drive for quick and immediate use in the future. However if it has been longer than 21 days since your system has had access to the internet, LabSim will prompt you to connect prior to being able to continue your training.


• If I don't use LabSim for more than a month, can I still continue my training?


• Absolutely. If more than 21 days have passed since you last accessed your course, LabSim will first check for an internet connection and will prompt you if you need to connect.
